Lori has been simply amazing for me in so many aspects. She asked me early on what my learning style was and that helped to structure our sessions and learn new strategies more efficiently. She listens to my concerns and comes up with just the right worksheet or advice to help me each time. Also, she has a warm and fun personality that makes it easy to connect and I really look forward to our sessions each week!

Lori is amazing to have in your corner! When I was overwhelmed with the most sadness and anxiety I've ever felt through a breakup- she helped build me up so I could manage my emotions better and get back to where I wanted to be, at peace. I learned a lot through her too. She was easy to talk to, sweet, professional, and detail oriented. Can't recommend her enough!

Written on Jan 25, 2022 after therapy with Lori for 5 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, self esteem, career difficulties, and coaching

this was my first time doing any sort of therapy. i had requested for prayer and scripture to be incorporated into our sessions and she provided so many great biblical and psychological resources that i will continue to use well regularly - tangible resources and daily practices to incorporate into my life to help strengthen all areas of my well-being - mind, body, heart, spirit. i’m so grateful. - also, even tho my subscription is cancelled, it still shows i’m active according to lori, but I CANT RESPOND TO HER because my subscription is actually cancelled and there is a loop of 2 pop-ups asking why i am not continuing the subscription and whether i want financial aid and back and forth.
